GEO-STR-002 Geotechnical Investigation for Structural Engineering & Civil Engineering Students

BACKGROUND

For safety of the structure and cost optimisation, appropriate geotechnical investigation is extremely important. Apart from definite statistics, it can be said that the geotechnical failures are one of the major causes for collapse of the structures. In the typical fast track projects, sometimes proper interface is not carried out between geotechnical engineer and structural engineer which may affect adversely the major goals of engineering, i.e. safety of the structure and cost optimisation. Also, the project may get delayed substantially due to inappropriate soil investigation or may be due to lack of interface between geotechnical engineer and structural engineer.

During launch of the course GEO-STR-001, we received numerous request from the students to launch the online course which is specifically designed for the students and should be affordable to the students. Based on the same, we are glad to launch the online course GEO-STR-002 for Structural Engineering & Civil Engineering students.

SQVe Consultants is a recently established company with a vision of enhancing the engineering profession through its unique services. Name of the company is derived from first letters of the engineering goals, i.e. Schedule, Quality & Value engineering. There is a huge gap between the academics and the current industrial practices and due to the same engineers are not industry ready. One of the major focus area of the company is to develop unique courses so that the civil engineers can face challenges of the industry and utilize the acquired knowledge in the real practice.

What is unique about the course?

This course will be especially useful for the Structural Engineering & Civil Engineering Students. Following will be Highlight of the Couse:

  1. Learn About Important Case Histories of Geotechnical Investigation
  2. Modern Trend in Geotechnical Investigation
  3. Importance of interface between structural and geotechnical engineers
  4. Critical analysis of various tests and its suitability
  5. Purpose of Geotechnical Investigation
  6. Brief about deep excavation, dewatering, etc.
  7. Many more Details…
  8. The course is designed by the experienced engineers (Vivek Kumar Mitra & Bhavin Shah) who have together more than four decades of experience in the field of geotechnical and structural engineering.
  9. The entire course is designed from the practical aspects which can be readily used in the real projects.
  10. The course is designed to have an interactive mode so that the problems / doubts of the participants can be addressed.

Certificate will be issued for participation in the online course.
